The new patch hides the whitelisted ids from the exported PCI id table, i.e. hotplug can't know which driver should be loaded for the certain known device. I think it'd be better to put back the whitelist into the pci_id table and handle the blacklist inidividually. > A centralized card list looks more advantageous now ... Well, the centralized list can't tell to the user-space which driver should be used unless you prepare a special hotplug agent parsing the driver_data entry.
